Hello GVYC Riders and Families-
We’re really excited to announce the launch of the GVYC Summer Gravity Program in June of 2023. We’ve known for a long time that there’s interest in a program like this and we’re excited to finally offer it to all of you. For the first season, we’ll primarily focus on skill development with the goal of going faster. We will also offer optional coaching support at a couple of regional Enduro or Downhill races.
The summer program will consist of 2 four week sessions with 1 morning practice per week. Each session will finish with a full day riding the Powderhorn Bike Park. We will also offer two programs in each session. Foundations of Gravity for younger, less experienced riders and Gravity Progressions for older, more experienced riders. Cost for each session is $150. Lift tickets and transport to Powderhorn are not included.
The lead coach will be Jon Casson who has been coaching with the GVYC part time the past couple of years. Jon has been coaching and teaching mountain biking for the past 10 years and is a Level 2 Instructor and Instructor Trainer for the Professional Mountain Bike Instructor Association. Jon has also been a professional snowboard coach for over 20 years working with World Cup and Olympic athletes in SnowboardCross. He’s really excited to bring his knowledge of how to go fast on a snowboard and apply it to mountain bikes!
Please see the attached Program Guide for more detailed information. Registration is currently open on the GVYC website.
